Fix Recommendation

From the Tomcat server as a privileged user, use the auditctl command.

sudo auditctl -w $CATALINA_HOME/lib -p wa -k tomcat

Validate the audit watch was created.
sudo auditctl -l

The user should see:
-w $CATALINA_HOME/ -p wa -k tomcat

Check Contents

Run the following commands From the Tomcat server as a privileged user:

Identify the home folder for the Tomcat server.

sudo grep -i -- 'catalina_home\|catalina_base' /etc/systemd/system/tomcat.service

Check the audit rules for the Tomcat folders

sudo auditctl -l $CATALINA_HOME/bin |grep -i lib

If the results do not include -w $CATALINA_HOME/lib -p wa -k tomcat, or if there are no results, this is a finding.
